I think we are either No 1 for forward entries and 5th for Sometimes I wonder what game you watch, it’s almost how you think the game should be played not how our new gameplan will be. What stood out for me was the relentless pressure when we didn’t have the ball …sadly missing in the last few games. We had an incredibly undermanned defence but we won on effort and commitment from 23 players. We can only improve.. small steps but exciting steps

That is just embarrassing…I so hope other supporters don’t read our forum ..I mean really you are crediting the win to the supporters 🫨

It will be an interesting podcast this week. I went to the GWS game and was excited by what I saw. I know we lost but it was an awesome game to watch. Like everyone very disappointed by our losses but I’ve learnt a long time ago …win or lose I don’t listen or read any media re MFC anymore & I only listen to Goodwin & the player who does the aftermatch interview. We seem to have forgotten that we’re watching a game of football ..the amount of scrutiny..analysis..dissection of a game is beyond ridiculous. Haven’t even listened to Demonland because it’s become quite depressing. I listened to a little of the Bombers podcast because Binman you are often the voice of reason but I’m disappointed that you seemed to have gone away from your adage of “listen to Goody”’. He has consistently said ..”we’re implementing a new game plan..we’re very confident we can do it..there will be hiccups along the way but in footy ThINGS CAN CHANGE QUICKLY “. We now have a healthier injury list (so we can drop players for form as we have some depth now). Senior players are regaining some form .. I don’t expect to win every game but I can definitely see the future. Goodwin took 7 years to build a gameplan around the players we had to get the ultimate success. He’s doing a new gameplan based around our young exciting players & it def won’t take 7 years. Goodwin deserves our respect.

Agree completely except I didn’t bag Goody

To me the reality is we are learning a new game plan ..it’s starting to show fruition but there will be hiccups along the way. He’s not implementing a game plan for Clarry ..Trac etc. Goody’s implementing a game plan around the raft of young talent that will be taking this team forward. The likes of our older brigade is to help build and support them and I think that will be exiting for them. Viney has been absolutely pilloried by posters here and yesterday he was exceptional. Looking at all teams this year ..I have no idea who will be no 1 at the end of it. There’s a new “media” darling every week..so I’m confident we’re heading in the right direction. That win yesterday & even the 3 point loss to GWS was exciting football. Many of our wins the last couple of years were just very boring & uninspiring

Very true. What Geelong & Collingwood to a certain extent) have is a large core of very experienced players with probably 10 years or so playing together. Their systems and continuity of same team mates will take them a long way but (in my opinion) I don’t think they’ll win the big dance. Now we have more players available we need to get them playing together to build that …raw talent is there

Did yesterday’s result make you see what I see 🤨

Character of players ..that’s a laugh. With what will eventually come out of this club…it will make whatever has happened at our club pale into insignificance. Hopefully it then highlights other indiscretions I.e. Stengle etc

What gets me excited is that we have realised we need a new game plan and we need to evolve. We have recruited new players to help push this & to support the players that are still part of our future. It took us 7 years to get success but I feel it will not be so long to be contending again. Unfortunately our supporters don’t seem to have the patience to ride it out.

Honestly ..I haven’t bothered coming on to the forum for awhile ( I become more depressed) & when you read posts like yours I have to seriously wonder if you actually support the club ? Don’t use language which you may think is clever ., we support a club .. not going well at the moment .. it’s not that hard. Football is not a reality tv show .. it’s just a game. I hate that we “turn on our own”. Bottom line ..we are all disappointed in different ways.

A passionate journalist ..how quickly people forget the reason he was sacked from Fox Footy. His misogynistic comments caused a lot of hurt but too often in society we are all about the “second chance” and forget about the victim .

😞if I had a $ every time these words or similar are written ..” not sure they show enough for AFL”…

Me too 😕

I bet you’re a really fun person to know 😕

He also stated that he has a young family and his own business but he will come back to the role in a few years when his family & business commitments are less demanding . He is fully invested ..
